Thank you for this explanation, this really cleared up the intended usage of --quiet for me. I wanted to use it for ancestry testing of two commits, noticed the hard-coded return value of '0' in cmd_rev_list() and thought that the implementation is probably missing. After some additional digging, I realized that git-merge-base is the right tool for my task.
